Han Daren's residence was very large, but there weren't many servants, making the vast courtyard seem somewhat deserted.

The group entered in single file. After arriving at the main hall, Han Daren sat down on a chair and told An Divine Physician to choose his own room to stay in.

An Divine Physician didn't stand on ceremony.

"Yeye, and that Niu Niu, you two come with me. The rest of you can just throw those refugees into one room and leave."

An Divine Physician waved his hand, and a large group followed behind him, leaving the hall suddenly quiet.

Before long, the guards who had been responsible for throwing the refugees into the room came out one after another.

Han Daren beckoned them over, and they quickly came over respectfully.

"Han Daren, do you have any instructions?"

"An Divine Physician will be staying here with me for the time being. See if there are any seriously injured villagers in need of treatment, and try to transfer them all here… Also, say hello to Doctor Hong, and don't let him misunderstand. Just say it's my intention."

Gu Yue Village didn't only have Doctor Hong as a physician.

But among the many physicians, Doctor Hong's medical skills were the highest, so he was basically the leader.

However, now that An Divine Physician from Mo Village had arrived, with his crushing level of medical skills, Doctor Hong probably wouldn't dare to have any objections.

In reality, how could Doctor Hong have any objections?

If it weren't for the fact that the village had too many casualties and he was swamped, he probably would have already run over to serve An Divine Physician, taking the opportunity to ask for medical advice and learn the poses.

Of course, Han Daren didn't know any of this. After giving the instructions, he dismissed the guard team.

After finishing his instructions, Han Daren got up and went to An Divine Physician's place.

He pushed the door open and saw that An Divine Physician had just lit the special incense he had brought, and then taken off Fang Yue's upper garment.

He had inserted more than twenty needles into Fang Yue's right arm, like an electrical circuit, faintly forming some kind of connection. The skin under the needles rose and fell like breathing.

Han Daren didn't know much about medical skills, but he understood that this was some kind of powerful medical acupuncture technique, so he asked, "How is he?"

"It's nothing. For ordinary people, the tenacity of [Cursed Affliction] would indeed be troublesome. However, Yeye's physique is unusual. He actually suppressed this type of [Cursed Affliction] effect, so the treatment will be very easy. I estimate it will be cured in two or three hours."

An Divine Physician didn't even turn his head, skillfully pressing his fingers on Fang Yue's right arm, and streams of qi pressed into Fang Yue's meridians along his fingertips.

As the qi flowed, it seemed that some black dregs were slowly overflowing from the spot on Fang Yue's right hand where he had been afflicted by the curse.

Two or three hours?!

Fang Yue was shocked.

Calculating the time, wouldn't that definitely be dawn!

"An Divine Physician, is there any way to cure me faster? It's best to cure me within an hour!"

An Divine Physician glared: "Yes, I'll stab you to death with a needle, and I can cure the [Cursed Affliction] in a second!"

"...Aren't you supposed to be able to do anything for money?"

"Bragging is bragging, medical skills are medical skills! No matter how high my medical skills are, I still have to slowly regulate your injuries according to the basic laws and force out the remaining dregs. Without this order, am I supposed to treat you with thin air?!"

Ah, this…

It seems that An Divine Physician isn't so divine after all…

Of course, Fang Yue didn't dare to say this out loud, but only said it silently in his heart.

Han Daren seemed to understand An Divine Physician's thinking, and nodded: "Then I'll have to trouble An Divine Physician."

After speaking, he told Fang Yue to rest assured and receive treatment, and then ignored Niu Niu, who was anxiously staring, and left the room.

As a result, he ran into Lin Ling who had just arrived.

"Han Daren!"

"Mm."

"That guy...how is his situation?"

"Much better than expected. An Divine Physician is already treating him, and said that in another two or three hours, he can remove the [Cursed Affliction] and restore his health."

Lin Ling immediately looked regretful: "What a pity!"

"What did you say?"

"...Congratulations!"

Lin Ling quickly said: "Congratulations! With Xiao Ye around, our village has another acquired martial artist, and our safety is more guaranteed!"

"Mm."

Han Daren nodded, as if he had thought of something, and beckoned to Lin Ling.

"Captain Lin, come with me."

Lin Ling's heart stirred, and he responded with some excitement.

Could it be that Han Daren has finally seen my shining points, recognized my aptitude and hard work, and wants to pass on his inheritance to me?

Following behind Han Daren, they quickly arrived at a slightly secluded pavilion.

Han Daren entered the pavilion and sat down, beckoning Lin Ling to sit down as well.

Lin Ling wasn't polite, and sat down respectfully, then hurriedly asked: "Han Daren, do you have something important to tell me in private?"

Han Daren was slightly surprised, and nodded: "That's right! This matter is very important, and I can only entrust it to someone trustworthy like you or Xiao Ye."

Me and Xiao Ye?

Wouldn't that be…

Lin Ling's face lit up, his spirits lifted, and he was so excited that goosebumps were rising.

Then, he saw Han Daren look up at the bright moon in the night sky, and said lightly: "What do you think of the strange nocturnal attack on Gu Yue Village tonight?"

I look at it horizontally! Vertically! Lying down!

As long as Han Daren you pass on your inheritance to me, I can look at it however you want!

Lin Ling quickly said: "Han Daren, I think there must be something fishy about this!"

"Good! I think so too!"

Han Daren's eyes turned cold, and for once, his tone was slightly low: "I just left the village, and the monsters attacked the village right after. The trickery inside can't be underestimated! I suspect… there's a traitor in our village!"

A traitor?!

The word "traitor" shocked Lin Ling so much that he forgot about the inheritance, and was stunned for a while before hesitantly saying: "That shouldn't be, right? Although the village didn't block the news of your trip to seek medical treatment, the whole village was united in tonight's monster attack, and I saw it with my own eyes. There can't be a traitor, right! Is Han Daren overthinking it?"

"Overthinking it?"

Han Daren glanced at Lin Ling, his expression and tone already returning to their usual indifference.

"I heard Xiao Ye mention that tonight, Niu Niu was fed [Heart-Devouring Pill] by a vice-captain of the guard team named Xin Jue, and was almost made into a medicine person! Do you still think that everyone in our Gu Yue Village is united?"

What?! Such a thing happened?!

Lin Ling's face changed, and instantly turned gloomy.

The version that Fang Yue told Lin Ling and others was in an extremely minimalist style, with no detailed internal information.

Only when recounting his experience to Han Daren was it the complete version.

So Lin Ling only now knew that Fang Yue and Niu Niu had experienced such a thing.

Thinking that such a thing had happened within the guard team, Lin Ling lowered his head, his murderous eyes staring straight at the floor, forcibly suppressing his killing intent, and asked through gritted teeth: "Where is that Xin Jue now?"

"He was killed by Xiao Ye. A Ning, the second-in-command of Xin Jue's team, and other team members were witnesses at the time. It's just that the version they said is different from what Xiao Ye said, so I have temporarily detained them."

After a pause, Han Daren continued: "In addition, Xiao Ye gave me a medicine box with several Heart-Devouring Pills inside. I had An Divine Physician examine them, and they were indeed Heart-Devouring Pills. Such a thing actually happened within our guard team, and coupled with the monster attack on the village tonight, I can't help but suspect that there's a traitor in the village, do you understand?"
